Home care & healthcare staffing software

Fill every shift. Without the phone tag.

vkWorkforce texts and calls your qualified staff the moment a shift opens, then runs the rest of your agency in one app: scheduling, mobile EVV, credentialing, payroll and billing.

  • AI calls and texts cover call-outs
  • GPS clock-in and visit verification
  • Credentials tracked with expiry alerts
  • Invoices with online card and ACH pay

Everything in one app

From the first applicant to the last payment

The shift you fill is the visit you verify, the invoice you send and the payment you receive.

AI shift filling

Post an open shift and eligible staff get a text. If nobody takes it, the AI phones them, gets a clear yes or no and books it.

vkVoice business line

Calls and texts from the web and the app on your agency number. Take over from the AI at any moment, with every call recorded and transcribed.

EVV & GPS clock-in

Geofenced clock-in and out, a GPS trail per visit, and client or family sign-off with a signature or PIN.

Recruiting & credentialing

Branded careers page with Indeed Apply, an applicant inbox, onboarding e-signatures and a credentials passport.

Payroll & vkPay

Timecards flow to payroll batches and invoices. Clients pay online by card or ACH and invoices mark themselves paid.

Portals & e-sign

Facility, supplier and family portals, plus vkDocs e-signatures for people with no account at all.

AI plus your team

Open shift at 2 AM? It’s already being covered.

vkWorkforce offers the shift to the right licenses first, by text and then by phone, and books the first clear yes. Your coordinators see every offer and can call, text or take over at any time.

Why vkWorkforce

Why agencies switch to vkWorkforce

Most agencies stitch together a scheduling system, a phone system, an AI calling vendor and a marketing tool. vkWorkforce puts them in one place, built in rather than bolted on.

One platform for home care and facility staffing

Run client visits, EVV and VA billing next to per-diem facility shifts. One login, one roster, one payroll export.

Open shift at 2 AM? The AI is already calling.

AI calls and texts your qualified staff, gets a clear yes or no, and books the shift. A coordinator can jump in, call or text the worker directly, or pause the AI at any time.

A business phone line built in

vkVoice gives every coordinator a line on web, iPhone and Android for manual calls and texts, on the same number the AI uses.

Clock-ins you can prove

Mobile EVV with GPS and geofenced clock-in, a shift location trail, e-signed timesheets, mileage and turn-by-turn directions.

Credentialing that runs itself

Applicants email their documents; vkWorkforce parses them, matches them to the right worker, tracks licenses and sends expiry alerts.

Works with AxisCare and symplr

Keep your current system connected while you switch. Shifts, visits and people stay in sync until you are ready.

Get paid, including by the VA

VA community care 837/835 EDI billing, plus invoice pay links clients pay online by card or bank account with vkPay.

Marketing built in, not bolted on

Built-in social media manager: daily blog posts auto-shared to Facebook & Instagram, plus lead sweeps and route planning for your marketers.

Transparent pricing from $179/mo

Published plans, unlimited office users and a 14-day trial. No sales call needed to see what it costs.

FAQ

Questions agencies ask us

How long does it take to get started?

It depends on the size of your roster and what you are moving from. We import your staff, clients and shifts for you, connect your phone line, and walk your office team through it, so your trial starts with real data.

How does vkWorkforce handle patient information?

vkWorkforce is built with HIPAA-aligned controls: patient details are masked before any AI call, access is limited by role with multi-factor sign-in, and every change is kept in an audit log.

Can we keep symplr CTM or AxisCare?

Yes. Growth and above can connect them, so shifts, visits and people flow into vkWorkforce while you keep working in your current system. When you are ready, switch over and turn the connection off.

Can my team still call and text staff themselves, or is it all AI?

Both. With vkVoice phone lines, coordinators call and text workers by hand from the web or the iPhone and Android app, on the same agency number the AI uses. They can join or take over an AI call, text the worker directly, or pause the AI at any time.

Can clients pay invoices online?

Yes. vkPay is live: invoices built from approved timecards go out with a secure pay link, clients pay by card or bank account (ACH), and the invoice is marked paid automatically. Funds go to your agency’s own vkPay account.

Is there a trial or a contract?

Every plan starts with a 14-day trial. Plans are month to month; paying annually gives you two months free.
